Handsome old building with shop-front windows, ales such as Barngates, Dent, Hesket Newmarket and Thwaites, good choice of foreign beers and of wines by the glass, fair-priced interesting light snacks, two woodburners (one in back family room with some ancient stripped brick), slate flagstones by counter on left, bare boards on right, polychrome tiles of a former corridor floor dividing the two, comfortably cushioned window seats and a couple of high-backed settles, big Lakeland landscape photographs, traditional pub games; background music; dogs allowed in bar, back courtyard below lawn sloping up to church, open from 3pm

Booking as a group?

You can now make a booking for up to 30 adults and 30 children on Pitchup.com.

Many sites set a maximum occupancy of 6/8 people per pitch, so try breaking your booking down into smaller groups to generate more results. For example, if you’re a group of 10, enter 5 people in your initial search and then book 2 pitches.

Use the 'Special requests' box on the booking page to ask to be sited together when booking multiple pitches: the campsite or park will try to grant your request.

Large groups: check the listing page for any group restrictions set out in the terms and section titled ‘Please note’.

Large tents/caravans: check the restrictions on unit dimensions to ensure your unit is suitable for the space you will be provided with.
